Motor bearings experience high radial and low axial loads during their operation, however the loads could be fluctuating owing to the motor being frequently switched on and off. High temperature (upto 80 °C) and excessive vibration are some other aspects that needs to be considered whilst selecting the right lubricant. High vibration can lead to the grease loosing consistency and oozing out of the applied area and eventual bearing failure.

Developed on high quality base oils, BECHEM’s range of textile mill motor bearing greases possess excellent oxidation stability and ensures long term lubrication. The speciality range of textile mill motor bearing grease can withstand high temperatures and provide consistent lubrication to the friction partners in spite of high vibration.

LUBRICANTS FOR MOTOR BEARINGS

Beruplex HTABeruplex HTA is a high temperature multipurpose grease for extended lubrication of plain and roller bearings that are subjected to high temperatures and speeds. This specially formulated high performance motor bearing grease lubricant protects bearings from abrasive build up and ensures lubrication even at high loads.

BECHEM offers new generation speciality lubricants designed for textile applications including spinning, weaving, processing and man made textiles that not only reduce maintenance costs but also boost productivity. BECHEM’s recommendations on effective lubrication engineering have enabled its customers to realise cost savings in replacement of spares, mitigate production losses and manpower costs.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

A grease with low base oil viscosity (between 15 cst to 20 cst) and effectively controlled solid particle size plays a major role in reduction of operating temperatures of top roll end bushes, especially at high drawing speeds of over 500 metres per minute.

A grease with low base oil viscosity (between 15 cst to 20 cst) and effectively controlled solid particle size plays a major role in reduction of operating temperatures of top roll end bushes, especially at high drawing speeds of over 500 metres per minute.

In lubrication engineering, the base oil viscosity should be lower with increasing speeds. Jockey pulley bearings fall under high speed category (6500 rpm to 7500 rpm for a spindle speed of 19,500 rpm to 22,500 rpm). The base oil viscosity of regular greases typically used in the Spinning industry varies between 120 cst to 160 cst for the application. Considering the high speed of bearings, the viscosity is excessive for the application and the primary reason for power surge after the re-greasing process.
